The topic of condom use in preventing the spread of HIV/AIDS should not be controversial. If you want to help prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS, then focus on prevention. As Pope Benedict XVI is visiting the United States, the topic of his views on birth control has come up a few times lately on Sirius [...]

Shutdown
March 5th, 2008 1 Comment
Tonight on TV I was reminded of one of the many reasons that homophobia is so rampant in the United States. When some people hear that another person, especially a family member, is gay they just shutdown. The immediate reaction is to shutout what we don’t understand and what we don’t want to understand. One [...]
Were you gay 60 years ago?
January 23rd, 2008 No Comments
Three-score and eighteen days ago on January 5, 1948, the W. B. Saunders Company of Philadelphia published, in association with Indiana University and the Rockefeller Foundation, the pivotal tome Sexual Behavior in the Human Male by Alfred C. Kinsey, Wardell R. Pomeroy, and Clyde E. Martin. I purchased a copy of the eleventh printing [...]

Organ Donation is NOT Gay
January 8th, 2008 2 Comments
Well, according to this CBC story, gay men in Canada are no longer allowed to donate their organs if they’ve had sex with another man (MSM) in the last 5 years. Yippee! A good point in the newscast is made that sexual promiscuity, not sexual orientation should be considered in whether or not one can [...]

Selfish Parents
January 3rd, 2008 1 Comment
I hate few things more than selfish parents. On the season premier of ABC TV’s Supernanny, I got to see just that. It disgusts me. I mean, a penis just doesn’t happen to fall into a vagina and spray. Does it? Did I miss something in 10th grade health class?
Besides that, I am finding more [...]

Organ Donation
December 28th, 2007 4 Comments
Before you think that “organ” refers to “penis”, GROW UP! In a previous post I talked about how I cannot donate blood. Because of the U.S. FDA’s ruling about MSM (men who have sex with men) blood donation saying that it’s against someone’s policies to let men who’ve had sex with another man who’s had [...]

Litany of the (Self-righteous) Saints

Note: this post attempts to show that racism is alive and well in Warren, Pennsylvania. It is disgusting and uncalled for. The statements made by a certain individual made me ill. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. ~Jason
So, my cousin is dating an African-American gentleman. According to some, [...]
Alone
December 22nd, 2007 No Comments
There are some people in life who are perfectly content living alone and being alone. I am not one of those people. Maybe it was my conservative, Christian upbringing that gives me the desire to be partnered? Maybe it’s because my parents divorced when I was only five years old? I really don’t know.
Whatever the [...]

Homoerotic Depression
December 19th, 2007 No Comments
We all get sad from time to time. As some may think, my issues are NOT caused by me being gay. It just isn’t so. I had a psychologist once that tried to pin all of my issues to my sexual orientation. Does that mean that all straight people suffer from depression because they aren’t [...]
